Certainty = Direction * hardwork

 I began my journey of creating certainty by doing hard work alone. It was a hit/miss use case, largely a miss.

Over time I realized that hard work can be bought, scaled, and standardized with systems. 

Direction is much harder to crack, and it has a higher impact on the result in the long run.

"A directionless Ferrari will have 0 displacement, I would rather want a driver on a pulsar bike- the odds of some displacement covered are higher in the latter."

The funny part is that you never know the accuracy of the direction with precision. You need to keep iterating on the direction part of the equation.

Every couple of months or a couple of years, your direction has to be updated as per the goal/result expectation. This is the core reason why it is hard to keep directional correctness over the long run- It is a moving target.

But it is vital that you get it right.... or at least somewhat right over time.

I have 15 people in my team, and in order to reach a goal I needed 50 people in the next six months - as per my previous directional understanding.

In the last couple of weeks, I update/refined my understanding of the problem which updated the process of reaching the goal. I would only need 20 people to reach the same goal.

10 lakh per month ke 10 customers bana rahe hai hum.... very simple strategy.

Whichever brand or team activity is not in alignment with this goal, we will remove it from the company over time.

Along with the growth of the company, I can see that my understanding of what brings results is changing over time.

Having learnt basic operations from High output management, I am more keep to learn and explore impact of directional correctness.

I can build a team of 20000 people and get to product output using High output management system.

Only if I am putting everyone's hardwork in the right direction.

I will screw it up big time if I am not careful about prioritizing my decision/direction. The least I can do is to be brutally honest with myself if I could see in the data that my direction is correctly impacting results.
